“In the Beginning” is distributed by Blackstone Audio, the nation’s largest audiobook publisher. The audio drama can be found at all major retailers, including Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Walmart, Target and Indigo (in Canada). Digital downloads are available from iTunes, Amazon’s Audible and Downpour.
While the “C” in BBC actually stands for Corporation, it might as well, be comedy as BBC4 historical sit-com called “Plum House”. Starring Simon Callow, Miles Jupp and Jane Horrocks. The Chortle article describes the six-part series as one that shows:
Peter Knight, curator of Plum House, former dwelling of poet and artist George Pudding, with Jupp as Julian, his fogeyish but megalomaniacal deputy. Horrocks is Maureen, running the giftshop and more concerned with turning a profit than preserving Pudding’s legacy.
This crumbling comedy begins June 15 in an 11.30 am following the successful pilot from 2014!
What chance do Sylvester McCoy, Tamsin Greig, and Tuppence Middleton have in being in an audio drama together? Well, if its from the team that brought you The Minister of Chance, all stars appear to be aligned for The Light of September.
This audio drama sci-fi series has been inspired by the teachings of Albert Einstein says this DenofGeek article and along with the above three are many other recognisble stars will be relesed as a free bi-weekly podcast.
What exactly IS The Light of September about? So glad you asked!
“Einstein said that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. In the near future, a probe does just that. On Earth, the crew of the oceanographic research vessel Venus begin to experience the results: a passing brigantine spews murder from its hold; strange creatures roam the seas, and the crew are shocked to learn that their chief scientist is dead: none more so than the chief scientist himself. Only a passing American ship can help, though it may not be from America…”

The BBC has made arrangements to carry the famous Twilight Zone Radio Dramas from producer Carl Amari. For those of us familiar, Stacy Keach’s rich voice fills the role of narrator once held by the iconic Rod Serling for the original television series. In an io9 article, we discover that ten episodes will be released featuring the voice work of such well known actors as Jane Seymour, Jim Caviezel, Michael York, Malcolm McDowel and many others.
Curiously, the first episode An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge was originally a silent French short film that Rod purchased the rights for and modified for the Twilight Zone. So fascinating to see how the voiceless is given voice in a new generation. But that’s the power of the Twilight Zone, and the power of radio drama. Look for the episodes on BBC 4 coming soon!
We’re back to Sandbox Radio Live to complete our “Spring Fling” with their live performance. How goes your work in NADSWRIM? Have you completed your writing quest this year? Only 2 weeks more to go!
Dear Sonic Society Members,
You rock! David and I know you rock. For over a decade you’ve been the most patient, dedicated, and growing fans sharing the explosion of modern audio drama or radio drama, or pulp audio or sonic cinema whatever you’ve wanted to call it to people you love.
And you’ve done it again. We rarely look at our stats. We’re not interested in how much we’re growing, but rather that we keep bringing you the best that is out there. However, this past show, we noticed a massive spike. How much of a spike? After a pretty low January over all, we’ve had over a hundred thousand downloads from our podcast in in less than a week all surrounding Valentine’s Day.
So with apologies to a murdered saint, we love you too. Thanks so very much!
Jack and David

We’re very excited to give the new mikes a whirl! What are you using today?
In the doldrums of winter, it’s time for a little Spring Fling or rather Spring Fever! Part one is here fromSandbox Radio Live. Where are you in NADSWRIM? Jack and David chat up the benefits and challenges of writing mystery fiction and it all begins here on the Sonic Society.
